Editor Joe Vig brings PUBLIC RECORDS REQUESTS front and center YOU CAN FIGHT CITY HALL

These Jokers Work for USThey want to TAKE from us.It doesn't work that way!Hold them ACCOUNTABLE

People have been filing FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) requests for years, but until I, Joe Viglione, started publicly requesting documents, many citizens were not aware of this right.

Lo and behold, City Hall has posted information on Public Records Requests.

By utilizing social media tools such as this Facebook page, blogs, Facebook live, public access tv cameras and FOIA requests the highly secretive Burke Administration has to start working for us, not taking from us without giving us the information that we deserve.

LOOK AT THIS:

Written public records request for the Medford Public Schools can be addressed to Alicia Palmer via email at mpspublicrecords@medford.k12.ma.us or via mail to 489 Winthrop Street, Medford, MA 02155.

Mayor Stephanie M. Burke has named Assistant City Solicitor Kimberly Scanlon, Esq., as the Public Records Access Officer for the City of Medford. Written public records request for the City of Medford can be addressed to Kimberly Scanlon via email at kscanlon@medford-ma.gov or via mail to 85 George P. Hassett Drive, Medford, MA 02155.
